The 5min To-Go Juice Meal... or not

It sounded so easy. Just throw the ingredients in and blend! 7 days of Juice Cleanse and you'd have a healthy inner self. Purged of all the impurities.

Pumped, i invested in a blender. Thinking that a blender and juicer is one and the same, I went trigger happy when I saw that one of those Juice It and Go blenders went on sale.

The blade is so amazing it can blend ice too. Thinking of all my fruity smoothies and how it would be the perfect companion when i kickstart my NatroSlim diet tomorrow. I didn't hesitate.

I shared my intention with my excolleague and he introduced me to RebootwithJoe. RebootwithJoe talks about using Juice Cleansing to reboot your system. He even has FREE plans for you to follow.

There are 3 days, 5 days, 10 days and 15days. Since I don't think I can survive on fluids for a looong time. I looked up the 3 day juice cleanse program instead.

Looks simple doesn't it. With the goal in mind to kickstart the program tomorrow, i decided to test out my new Munster Blender. Trial.

So I tried the Carrot Apple Lemon Juice. But improvised.
- 1 x BIG Apple. I realize my blender isn't that big. So i couldn't fit in 2 apples
- 2 x carrots. Similar to the apples. I couldn't fit all into the blender
- 1/2 x lemon. I didn't think i want to drink something too sourish.

You can see me attempting to blend it all together.
Blending of Fruits

What they menu didn't tell me was, I NEED TO ADD WATER! It was a lightbulb moment when i realize that everything was turning into pulp. A huge mash. It wasn't what i envisioned of lots of juice. And i realize a JUICER AND BLENDER is DIFFERENT!!!!

I had to add in some water to ensure that the fruits got blended out.

And im good to go...

I realized that it's not possible to drink it this way as it's just pulp. Hard to swallow and I gave up after the 1st cup. What I resorted to do was pour the pulp into my Juice Infuser Water bottle. And dilute it with lots of water. It sort of filters the pulp into drinkable portions.

I don't want to admit that I failed. But from tomorrow, I think I have to improvise a little. I would Juice Cleanse but with lesser fruits and more water content. But I would still eat some solids. Perhaps a meal of solids and the rest is Cleansing. I honestly am not optimistic of my determination to stick to just fluids.

But hey, on the bright side. This is an experience and now i know that a blender is WAY different from a juicer. And though I kind of bought the wrong product, I am consoling myself with the fact that I did meet some of my initial requirements. And that is to be able to consume the fibre bits.
